Fox News Host Floats Possibility Trump Tried to 'Sell' Classified Documents
Newsweek ^ | 8/14/22 | 8/14/22 AT 5:42 PM

Posted on 08/15/2022 1:14:10 AM PDT by conservative98

Fox News anchor Eric Shawn floated the possibility that former President Donald Trump may have tried to "sell" classified documents to Russia or Saudi Arabia.

The FBI executed a search warrant at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort residence on Monday in search of top secret and sensitive compartmentalized information, as well as other classified documents. The Washington Post reported Thursday that information regarding nuclear weapons was believed to be among the documents sought by federal agents, and a Russian-state television host said officials in Moscow have already studied the records. Trump described the report regarding nuclear weapons documents as a "hoax."

In a Sunday Fox News broadcast, Shawn interviewed former intelligence officer and Russian expert Rebekah Koffler. At the start of the segment, the Fox News anchor raised questions about what Trump may have done with the classified materials.

Shawn, citing reports, said that intelligence officials reportedly feared "either the material was being mishandled or even possibly illegally transferred...to others."

"And more questions are being raised this morning. Did former President Trump try to sell [or] share the highly classified material to the Russians or to the Saudis, or others? Or were the documents innocently mishandled and stored because he thought he had a legal right to have them?" the Fox News anchor asked.

Fox News host Eric Shawn can't contain his contempt for President Trump.

This morning he asked Rebekah Koffler about the idea of Trump selling nuke secrets to Russia and suggested that Putin has seen the documents. pic.twitter.com/LiqG4oSUw4β€” Citizen Free Press (@CitizenFreePres) August 14, 2022

It would make more sense that the FIB raided Trump’s home for the documents that they could then sell to China.

Fake news media narrative keeps hanging every day.
They first of all claimed Garland had nothing to do with it, then claimed it was done by some β€œrogue” FBI agents acting independently, only for Garland to come out and give his little speech denying both and accepting he euthanized everything.

2 problems right on surface with this:

The guy is a billionaire, what could they possibly give him he doesn’t already have.

It has come out he had a standing order anything he took to the residence was de-classified.

I’m completely disgusted by this.

Let’s just make stuff up, “report” on it, and then get the Mockingbird media to repeat it.

Unbelievable.

Fox News amplified by Newsweek reporting on a Fox News report.

A fine example of Pelosi's "wrap up smear."

As far as their credibility goes, is it much different from CNN?

You ever think that this raid is because something Hillary had is floating out there?

We are anticipating war with China and Russia.

It would make sense to ‘blame’ the former President? How about it is cover for the Clintons!
